Jessie J- Flashlight

Zi You didn't know what had happen. All he remembered was the sound of a gun and before he knew it, he was in front of Lui Yun.

A stabbing pain flared by his heart as his hand rosed to touch it. The area was damp from blood, and the pain was too much for him to handle.

Lui Yun didn't want to believe it. He didn't believe that what he was seeing was real. It wasn't suppose to be like this. He felt a teardrop fall down his cheek, as his hands wrapped tightly around Zi You's body.

Zi You could feel his eyes closing bit by bit. He didn't want to close his eyes but the pressure was too much. He put on the best smile he could, and lightly touched Lui Yun's cheek.

"I'm sorry. I love you, but my time seems like it would end sooner than your's. I hope that you would be able to move on." He tried his best to say, but his words ended up breaking. He gasped, trying to take in a breath of air.

"Shh, don't speak. You're going to be alright, you will be alright. We're going to grow old together, hand by hand. Don't you dare say that you will be leaving earlier than I." Lui Yun said, as tears clouded his eyes, and his hands wrapped even tighter around Zi You.

Zi You softly smiled as his eyes slowly gave up on him. I hope I meet you in my next life.






Everything was dark. I didn't know where I was, and no matter what I did, nothing happened. I would see this light that calls for me, but with every step I take, it just gets farther.

I was trapped in total darkness, silence echoed, with no one to guide me. But I still believed that I could get out. I felt like there was this pull that begged me to get there. I don't know how many times I tried to get to that light, but I never gave up.

I tried everything I could. But at the same time, I felt like I had forgotten something important. I tried and tried to recall what it was, but no matter what, all I came up with was nothing.

It felt like there was this invisible hole in my heart, and if felt like I had left something important to me behind. I had no idea what it was, only able to recall faint glimpse of images that moved too fast for me to tell.

I don't know how long I've been here, or why I was in here. I had forgotten everything in my life, only remembering that I had woke up to this scene. Whenever I tried to remember, something was blocking me, I would feel an intense pain whenever I tried.

There was this thing in my heart that would pulse in pain, when I felt a light tug on my hand, but when I looked, there was nothing there.

Many times, I woke up to this light touch on my face, only to see that there was nothing there at all. A feeling of something long lost always stays in my heart. I wish I could find out what had happened to me, but I had forgotten everything.

I was trapped and I wonder what I did wrong. When the feelings of lost is too much for me to handle, I wish to give up. I had wanted to give up, but something mysteriously calls for me.

It was like that, even though I had no idea what I was supposed to be looking for. I have gotten use to looking at that dim light, and trying to walk closer to it.

But one day, I saw something. A man's face appeared in my mind, yet I had no idea who he was. Though I didn't know who he was, there was the feeling of home deep down, in my heart.

I felt love, and many feelings that couldn't be described. I tried to touch his face, but only thin air met my hand.

I forced myself to remember and the pain followed. But I didn't care, I had to find out.

And then it happened. Everything came rushing back to me. The small details and the person who meant the most to me. The one who had tried to save me, the one who bursted into tears at my death.

An overwhelming feeling came over me, and I knew that I wasn't dead. Not yet.

I took a step towards that light, and finally, I was moving and getting closer to it. Without looking back, I ran towards it. And as I reach that light, it transfer me to a room with thousands of doors.

With my gut feelings, I went straight towards the first one. That also took me into another room. This room had mirrors all over it, my reflection dawned upon me. I turned and turned, trying to find a way out.

Suddenly, it seemed like he was here with me. I felt him pull me forward and I let him. My body went straight through the mirrors and I felt weightless. He was still there, guiding me throughout my journey.

Seven trails, seven reincarnation of lovers, seven different lives spent trying to be together once again. Each lifetime was spent looking for each other, finding each other only to lose the other once again.

It led me into the finding out our past lives and how we were separated every lifetime. But not this lifetime. In this lifetime, we would finally be together.

The last trail I take would lead me back to you, and this lifetime, we will never be separated. I will gladly defy heaven, and the fate they had put upon us. I will create our own destiny with this last step.

As I took that last step, my eyes closed once again. Lui Yun, I'm coming back.

Zi You's eyes slowly fluttered open.
